Dick's Uptown Cafe opened in Febraury 2009 by Dick and Teril Woodward. They have been residents of Cedar Hill for 17 years moving from Carrollton. Dick started managing restaurants beginning in the 70's. He got his start with The Sailmaker in Ft Worth/Dallas. Over the years to come he managed The Railhead (Houston), Banks and Shane's (Atlanta), Tolbert's Chili Parlor (Dallas), and The Hoffbrau (Dallas/Ft.Worth) which is where he met his wife, Teril.

He was a partner in Crumly Cogwheels (Houston) beginning in 1976. In 1985 Dick was back in Dallas and opened Woodways Café in downtown Dallas with his wife and eventually had 2 other locations for a few years. In 1989 he took over Café Esprit in downtown Dallas in what was then the First City Bank Building. At the same time he had Woody's Grill in the adjacent building for 10 years which has since been sold. Dick is fulfilling his desire to live and work in his hometown and end his commute to downtown Dallas for over 25 years.
